Audio quality is another big factor with streaming media. Streaming media likes to heavily compress surround sound effects. While discs aren't perfect, they usually have a more immersive audio experience because of less…
Consider the following: Google has a fiduciary duty to its shareholders. Google has no duty to retain an employee hired at-will. Is it more ethical to reject a duty by favoring the employees? Deontological ethics…

Interesting example: Elon Musk is technically an "African American," except the word is actually used to mean Black American
I've played League of Legends for 10 years and have no idea why Riot Games would be a good analogue for NVIDIA. Can you elaborate?
Adjustment layers are a key part of a non-destructive editing workflow. Without them, doing professional work like retouching is much more difficult. GIMP's issue is that they don't seem to care about power user…
Photopea's killer feature is the fact that it, for the most part, directly copies Photoshop's implementations of features. There's no learning curve because it's basically the same. On the other hand, GIMP still doesn't…
My understanding of a "conflict of interest" is that they happen when a personal interest interferes with a duty. Ex: a company executive receiving a gift from a potential supplier. This situation would not be a…
What is your definition of "a better place"? The vast majority of products people buy help them solve problems of all kinds. An economic transaction is a win-win for both buyers and sellers. Look at products like the…
Your opposition is often seeing things from a logic-based economic lens. You might not have much success making an emotional argument. I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you but you need to logically argue why "rent,…

Outside of the true exclusives, console games are just a subset of PC games. So as a PC gamer, you get access to console games + the majority of MOBA, MMO, RTS, 4X.
Tracking users with online advertising is actually a good thing for economic efficiency. People tend to see more relevant products, and are able to allocate their resources to products that better meet their needs. The…

What GP is talking about isn't always a high five, so slap hands is a better phrase. See here for example: https://youtu.be/T9chSovkDkA?t=34
I'd appreciate it if you could provide some evidence for your claim that comparative advantage is "lost in the noise." Efficient allocation of scarce resources is best achieved with comparative advantages. A commercial…
In the long run, a company that wastes money on purchases will be beaten in the market by a company that isn't so wasteful. Marketing and sales is not wasteful, but actually creates profit.
Contracting requires the devs to get up to speed on the software and your company needs. On the other hand, a private company selling commercial software has a comparative advantage in already knowing the codebase and…
rough at the edges That part is the deal-breaker for many people who actually use these tools for work. It's difficult to daily drive an objectively worse software, when your pay depends on producing value with it.
